Are birds really monogamous?

Feb 9th, 2012, 5:14 pm

This Saturday, we’ll be speaking to Professor Tim Birkhead from the University of Sheffield, an expert in sexual selection and behaviour in birds. Tim will be joining us to talk about monogamy in birds and we’ll be finding out why how their social lives differ from their sex lives. Tune in at 6pm on Saturday to hear the interview.
